Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Gaining weight while suffering from active ulcerative colitis is a challenge. You need to get your disorder treated with medicines or surgically or at least reach the remission phase then only some dietary changes can be suggested.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
